Make it Crafty Tea Party

Welcome to the very special Make it Crafty Tea Party!

Today, I'm joining the fun with a collection of Make it Crafty fans from around the world, serving you a delicious array of crafty delights to celebrate not only the magical release of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ but also Make it Crafty’s THIRD Birthday!!

What better way to celebrate than a tea party full of Make it Crafty fans?

As you chase the white rabbit down holes, through small doors, around corners and more… keep your eye out for hidden letters, collecting them along the way. Simply decipher the ‘question’ and then enter the answer at the end of the hop for a chance to win the grand prize!

It wouldn’t be a fun tea party without hidden prizes along the way, so make sure you comment as you chase the rabbit for a chance to win more prizes!

-----------------------------------------------------

Hopefully you’ve found your way through the door from Siina, but if you’ve just fallen down the hole then you might want to start back at Zoe.

------------------------------------------------------------------

The guests were given the option to play with 6 images from the new collection and I chose to get creative with Alice and White Rabbit, but it didn't stop there, I wanted to make something other than a card…. and so I tried my hand at the one and only 'mad hatters hat'.

Not to bad for a first attempt I don't think.  I coloured the image with copics 

E000, E00, E02, R20

BG000, BG01, BG05

C1, C2, C3, C4

R39

I added loads of charms and embellishments, the pins were coloured using my copics and I added a mirror charm as I just felt it fitted!  On the bottom there is a lovely little fold crown that I stuck using silicone!!! You can also see how I have stuck the images! 

The little toadstools were also coloured using my copics and a white gel pen - who would have though a gel pen would stick?!?!!!! The bottle was coloured using some e37 topic refill and the label written by hand :) I also added an old key from my stash :)

On the back I just couldn't resist a big bow and a watch charm dangling…. as well as a little tea pot of course :)  I then decided that I wasn't happy with the hat - so I made something else :)  Yes I went back to making an old faithful…. 

I just couldn't resist making a card with her!!! I used all the same colours as above, she is only 3 1/2 inches tall on both creations! Not the easiest to colour!!! 

The image on both creations was cut on my cameo and the frame on my card was also cut using her too!!! 

The fun doesn’t stop here and if you head through this door you’ll find your way to Tanja…

Thank you so much for stopping by - and a BIG THANK YOU to Zoe for letting me be a part of this!!!!

I do hope you will stop by again soon!

Frames….

Good Morning all!

Well as some of you may remember back in October last year I joined in with the 13 Days of Halloween challenges over at Simply Challenged Challenges - when it came to an end I was offered a GDT spot and I just had to say yes! so here I am today with my first post :) 

Im hopeful that you have come from Kaylou's blog - if not then pop back to the Simply Challenged Challenges blog and you will see the complete list on there :)

So the challenge for the next two weeks at Simply Challenged Challenges is 

FRAMES

It stumped me! and with being unwell recently I found it even harder but I got there in the end.  I decided to keep it quite simple for this challenge and have made a card using Stylin' Betty

I coloured the image using copics and then used my nesties…. I had to be cleaver here and while the die and paper were still together I used my craft knife and cut the inside out :) 

Well I hope you like my card and I hope you will pop back again soon

Crafty Sentiments New Release!

Good Morning! How are we today?!

I was so excited last week when Joanne from Crafty Sentiments said she was looking for a few Guest Designers for the release today, I had to ask... and I was chosen! I was over the moon and couldn't wait to get started.  She e-mailed me the image and within seconds he was printed and I couldn't wait to colour! 

I will confess that he was coloured in the sun last week, oh what wonderful weather that was... and I had never managed to colour out in the garden before... and I didn't after as it got a bit blustery! But I can't wait to be doing it more and more! This is the gorgeous 'She Loves Me' who is now available at the Crafty Sentiments Store.  

He was coloured using copics 

Hair - Y21, YR12, YR14, E15, E18 

Skin - E00, E11 (yes I tried a a different skin tone but I wasn't happy!)

Trousers and shoes - C4, C5, C2

T-Shirt - W1

Jacket - B02, B00

I decided to add real flowers to the bouquet he is carrying, just to add some detail. The paper was from my stash and the sentiment is from a set of LOTV stamps. 

This was the 1st attempt at this colour hair - before the Saturated Canary one seen last week, I was so impressed with how it turned out and couldn't wait to send it to Joanne! I hope you like him and I hope you will pop over and see the rest of the new release, before I go I would like to enter this card into the following challenges; 

Art Impressions Stamps - Seeing Spots

Shellies Images - Pick at Least Two (Flowers, Markers, Digi)

Just Keep On Creating - Anything Goes

Simon Says Stamp - Anything goes

Thanks for stopping by, hope to see you again soon
